Just want to say that's outstanding video I have a Toro it was brand new it's probably doesn't have more than 8 hours on it but it's set through the season and the winter time and stuff and it just wouldn't start and you have provided enough information that a monkey could probably do this job.
I once found one in the trash and repaired it. Just as I have done hundreds of times with other mowers before. All the others were resold and hopefully still run well today. This is the only one I kept. Even purchased a new bag. For some reason I like that Kohler. Just looks good to me.
Great video. Fixed my Kohler powered lawn mower in an hour after watching. Don't have a sonic cleaner just used carb cleaner on all components and it worked.
Great video! I have done many of these carburetors and you did a fantastic job and this video should help many people wanting to fix their mowers.keep these videos coming!!✌✌✌
Thank you Buck!....great video. It's not at ALL boring at all to watch you clean the jets and to reassemble. We rooks have not a clue how to. Thanks again!
I have a Craftsman Lawnmower with a Kohler 149cc engine. We bought it around 10 years ago from Sears and (bite my tongue) but we have never had a issue with it. It sits outside year round in our Canadian arctic and hot summer months getting snowed and rained on each year. I just change the oil at the start of every spring, check and clean the spark plug if needed. Put a new air filter on it and ( i converted the fuel filter to a external one) check the fuel filter and it is good to go for the season. The only other thing I changed was a fuel line because we had a pesty mouse that likes the taste of rubber and gas. We had to give him a burial ( thank god) because the high octane gas was to much for him. The key to making it last year after year is a little maintenance and some high quality high octane gas. I will be giving this one to my son and getting myself a self propelled lawn mower for all out unlevel yard and older age lol. I will buy another Kohler engine lawnmower again.
The part where he sprayed the hole then put the screwdriver in and started to clean 😅 and said “oh yeah” made me tell wife let’s just go to bed early bae.. I’ll fix it tomorrow 😅😂😂😂😂 great video btw
good vid. i dont mess with the studs though, jsy two nuts holding on the autochoke and it comes off allowing you to free the carb. Those autochokes are unreliable. . i converted mine to manual
Yes Man Romo wouldn't start either here I'm missing the spring that runs down and pulls the choke open or closed that's why I won't stay running and bad gas
You did not give a chance for your viewer to decide if they wanted to watch you put the parts back into the carburetor. I think you should have left that choice to your viewer
Picked one up at a garage sale, starts and runs but as soon as you engag the drive and push forward to cut grass it dies.... also dies even if you don't engage the drive???
Obviously there is a lot of skill involved in my opinion what you just did. So I'm going to have to get an estimate from the dealer what a brand new carburetor Will cost and bounce that off the option of maybe getting bad and just do a bolt on replacement take the cowards way out another words. But as a side note I am definitely not going to use anything but old-fashioned fuel not this corn fuel and I'm going to completely run it dry every time I put it away if it sits there for 30 minutes to burn everything off I don't care I want it dryer than a popcorn you know what.😊
74 years old and I don't have a table to put it on so you know take that in account before you think I'm doing something I shouldn't. If I lose one or two screws and can't find them then automatically I probably going to have to take it to a dealer anyway and he's going to charge me the dealer's rate per hour and possibly I can get a brand new carburetor for less than two or three hours labor whatever they want to charge So economically I think it might be a wash and so that's what we're going to do and I'll provide feedback and see how that went so everybody is interested will know. Cancer thank you very much.
